    stuck at ./adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko I get error - cannot stat 'bcm4329.ko': No such file or directory

    Any ideas?

    Edit - I figured it out, you need to move all the files from the platform-tools/modules folder to platform-tools.

    Fully rooted now

    I am interested in rooting my xoom but I am not able to find concise step by step instructions. There seem to be many different options in regards to rooting.
    I prefer to use a MAC but can use XP if needed.

    WiFi (MZ604) Rooting Process step by step definitive instructions for the lay-man/somewhat savvy computer user.
